"Derick Lopez’s fine Puerto Rican restaurant in Astoria remains open for takeout and delivery, serving up nourishing mofogno, heady pernil, tropical fruit shakes, and perhaps most notably, pasteles. Lopez forges the rectangular parcels from a mash of taro, plantain, and pumpkin, and then laces them with stewed pork. They are as green as seaweed and smell of smoke.
